My name is Yancheng Ling. I am currently a Postdoc on urban knowledge graph at KTH. I have PhD degree in Transportation from the South China University of Technology in 2024 and I was a visiting PhD at KTH Royal Institute of Technology between 2022 and 2023. I obtained my Bachelor and Master degrees from East China Jiaotong University and South China University of Technology. My research interests include driver behavior detection and analysis, environmental perception.

Project: Knowledge Graph for Urban Transportation 

The commitment to decarbonization and positive energy district is driving cities and service providers to leverage emerging techniques to promote sustainability that could improve or innovate conventional practices in all fields. The ubiquitous sensor data and research findings from literature/reports provide invaluable knowledge driving decision makings. However, the question is how to synthesize and interpret the vast evidence effectively, efficiently, and timely, given the diversity of research topics, inconsistency and sparse findings, and the large volume of evidence accumulation.

My project is expected to develop the factual knowledge graph for urban transportation decision makings from structured and unstructured data.
